Let's go streaking!

I have a weird affinity to keeping “streaks” going with apps and games and other things. I don’t know what it is about it, maybe it’s because I’m very routine oriented and just like consistency of things, but keeping up streaks is just something that is part of my day.

Sure, it’s a bit silly (like getting karma on Reddit, “fake internet points”) but that little dopamine rush of completing a task and keeping a streak going is probably why so many things are gamified these days. It’s nice to have the routine and familiarity of it, always setting aside a few minutes here or there to keep a streak going, or at least I think so (your mileage may vary)

So I figured I’d share some of the (pointless, ridiculous) streaks I currently have going. All are accurate and ongoing as of this post (8/27/26)!

  • Wordle - 1234 day streak. Super proud of this one!
  • CARROT (Weather app) - 3,002 day streak of checking the daily forecast
  • Lose It! (Fitness tracking app) - 1,847 days of tracking food/water/weight
  • Apple Fitness (Move rings) - Current streak is 200 days. Before that it was 2,174!
  • Apple Fitness (Perfect month) - Longest streak was 12/17 - 10/23
  • Crossword Jam+ (Apple Arcade game) - Current streak is 40 days, before that was 452

Like I said, silly and pointless but curious what other streaks you might be maintaining!
